ICYKOF ANNOUNCES LIMITED-EDITION VINYL RELEASE OF DEBUT EP ‘ZERO SUGAR’

“For ICYKOF, fashion is out, music is in.” - Hypebeast UK

“Euphoric, free, and firmly planted on the gritty warehouse dancefloor, the project is a far cry from Kofi’s high-flying fashion world – ego-death never sounded so funky.” - Dazed
Electronic music fans and vinyl collectors, take note: ICYKOF’s debut EP, ‘ZERO SUGAR,’ is coming as a limited-edition vinyl on April 3 via RAVE NUIT. The pressing captures ICYKOF’s gritty blend of Detroit techno and Chicago house, with influences from pioneers like Underground Resistance and Robert Hood.

The vinyl features standout tracks such as the acid-infused ‘PAYDAY,’ the hypnotic ‘SHE KNOWS’ (remixed by MoMa Ready), and ‘BRING IT BACK’ (+ Bambounou remix), praised by heavyweights like Josh Wink, DJ Bone, and HAAi.

Having transitioned from creator of The Unknown Vlogs to one of London’s most exciting new DJs and producers, ICYKOF brings a fresh perspective to underground music. This exclusive vinyl is a must-have for fans of raw, warehouse-ready techno.

No Speakers scores a major coup here by signing a Detroit legend from Underground Resistance's Galaxy 2 Galaxy. This guy's shared stages with figureheads like Jeff Mills, Carl Craig and Goldie so his creds cannot be questioned. His signature fusion of jazz and electronic fire burns bright here with A-side bangers 'Layers to This' and 'Bridgehouse' primed for future classic status as well as peak-time destruction. Flip it for South London's L.A. Synthesis remix. No stranger to dropping their own iconic techno, their take twists and turns into otherworldly soundscapes. Label boss El Prevost closes the EP with a savage twist of 'Bridgehouse' that is dark and twisted in all the right ways.
